Search - Risk No Secrets (Black Ops, Bk 5)

Cindy Gerard is an auto-buy for me. I first discovered her about 5 years now at the beginning of this Black Ops series. These books are first rate romantic suspense!!! This is Wyatt Savage's story. Like the preceding 4 books, Risk No Secrets was a roller coaster ride of emotions and a can't-put-downer novel!!! Can't wait to read Doc's story!!

From the opening paragraph, I was hooked into this story. I thought it was really good until about 3/4 of the way through and then I felt it fell kind of flat. Maybe because I knew who the bad guy was early on; I don't know. It seemed that the final lead-in to the HEA just wasn't what I expected and didn't seem to hold true to the characters. Overall, if you're into the BOI series, don't skip this one, because even at being slightly less than fantastic, it is still a real good read.

As usual with Gerard, this story doesn't disappoint. The bad guy was slightly too obvious. I would have liked to keep guessing between the two options. It can be a stand alone book but it helps if you have read the others in the series to fully enjoy the boys. I actually wished there were more interaction between the boys and the wives. It was a fast read. Overall I enjoyed the book. She does a good job balancing suspense with romance. I love that Sophie isn't exactly the kick-butt kind of girl but she definitely keeps up.
